Just got out of tonight’s first preview. It’s a weird show. They’re clearly still working through a lot—the house opened at the time the show was supposed to start, and they started about 15-20 mins late. There were some technical difficulties throughout with Grace’s looper and the set—a stagehand had to come out and help the turntable rotate. It’s certainly unique, and I’m glad this kind of work is being supported by Lincoln Center. But it left much of the audience confused. All five actors are superb. Grace is clearly pouring her heart into this one, and it shows. Hopefully it improves with previews!

Was there tonight and I thought it was terrific. The spoken dialogue needs some work, but the chamber opera part of it is excellent with dazzlingly complex and haunting music and an equivocally powerful story. Lee Sunday Evans did terrific work, particularly with the visual aesthetic.

Christian theming in musical theatre is really making quite the comeback.

Yesterday's matinee was beautifully sung. The score is indeed complex and the voices of all up to the task. I just didn't find the story very compelling.
